ABSTRAKPada studi ini, dilakukan penggabungan metode - metode untuk memperkuat dan meningkatkan sisi keamanan proses pertukaran informasi atau pesan digital. Metode yang digunakan diantaranya adalah metode kriptografi dan metode steganografi. Implementasi pada sistem yang dibangun dilakukan dengan menyandikan pesan pada penerapan metode steganografi citra dalam menyembunyikan pesan tersandi yang dihasilkan ke dalam sebuah citra warna (RGB) dalam domain Discrete Cosine Transform dengan teknik penyisipan Spread Spectrum. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa kualitas dari stego image sangat mirip dengan cover citra yang digunakan, berdasarkan perolehan nilai performansi objektif PSNR diatas 30 db dan subjektif MOS di atas nilai 4.Kata kunci: Steganografi, Discrete Cosine Transform, Spread Spectrum, PSNR, SNR ABSTRACTIn this study, a combination of methods was used to strengthen and enhance the security side of the process of exchanging information or digital messages. The methods used include cryptographic methods and steganography methods. The implementation of the system built is done by encoding the message on the application of the image steganography method in hiding the encrypted message generated into a color image (RGB) in the Discrete Cosine Transform domain with the Spread Spectrum insertion technique. The results of the study show that the quality of the stego image is very similar to the cover image used, based on the acquisition of an objective performance value of PSNR above 30 db and subjective MOS above a value of 4.Keywords: Steganografi, Discrete Cosine Transform, Spread Spectrum, PSNR, SNR

Background: Nowadays information security is one of the biggest issues of social networks. The multimedia data can be tampered with, and the attackers can then claim its ownership. Image watermarking is a technique that is used for copyright protection and authentication of multimedia. Objective: We aim to create a new and more robust image watermarking technique to prevent illegal copying, editing and distribution of media. Method : The watermarking technique proposed in this paper is non-blind and employs Lifting Wavelet Transform on the cover image to decompose the image into four coefficient matrices. Then Discrete Cosine Transform is applied which separates a selected coefficient matrix into different frequencies and later Singular Value Decomposition is applied. Singular Value Decomposition is also applied to the watermarking image and it is added to the singular matrix of the cover image which is then normalized followed by the inverse Singular Value Decomposition, inverse Discrete Cosine Transform and inverse Lifting Wavelet Transform respectively to obtain an embedded image. Normalization is proposed as an alternative to the traditional scaling factor. Results: Our technique is tested against attacks like rotation, resizing, cropping, noise addition and filtering. The performance comparison is evaluated based on Peak Signal to Noise Ratio, Structural Similarity Index Measure, and Normalized Cross-Correlation. Conclusion: The experimental results prove that the proposed method performs better than other state-of-the-art techniques and can be used to protect multimedia ownership.
